Mythic Adventures!

Last night we played our regular game of Pathfinder. We have been playing a Mythic Campaign now for around 10 games and I am amazed that every time I plan for a mythic event it really soars to new heights. Last night was all about repercussions for the party (and is likely to end in further repercussions). They had entered the lands of Geb and entered a coastal fortress of a Vampire who serves as one of the nobles of the land. They hoped to get his assistance in offering them an audience with the Harlot Queen. Amongst the party their is the Lawful Good Cleric/Monk Kaleb and the Vampire (and pretty well everyone else in the country) took exception to his presence.

Long story short, they got their audience and painted a target on their back in the same process with their association with this paragon of goodness. Last night I knew what must be done. There are forces that are chasing the Skull of Ydersius and one of the groups former companions knew that they had it but did not know where. He used Greater Scrying to eavesdrop on the conversation and used this information in combination with the Vampire Lord’s allegiance to attack the group with his wife (a Mythic Medusa with 9 Sorcerer levels). The Vampire Lord would return successfully with the skull and be a hero in Geb for the power the artifact had. The companion knew the other group was strong and hoped that they weakened the Vampire Lord enough so that when he returned Gelik could make off with the skull.Of course the players won, but the Vampire did manage to kill two of them. The medusa was practically a non-event so I have not included her here but below is the Vampire I used. The mythic feel to this fight was fantastic! It had the players stressed, thinking and researching. It was a great game. I love what the mythic game has brought to Pathfinder!Have a look over him. He is specialised in gaining extra attacks per round AND also shrugging off critical hits. I really enjoyed making this guy so would welcome any comments you have!
